Given that it is an extract from a work of political philosophy, I decided to post the one in the philosophy section:
This is to put no difference between the Father and Butcher of his Country, between the Shepherd and the wolf, between sharing and fleeing of the sheep. A King governs, and is governed by laws; a tyrant hath no law but his will; jus est in armis, opprimit leges timor. [emphasis added]
For more, see Alexander Ross: Princes are to be shepherds, not tyrants.
